The truck drove slowly along the two-lane road, with older houses on both sides.

Chen Xu was wearing fogged glasses and looking outside, but his eyes were still a little confused.

They had just left the restaurant not far away and this was the nearest town.

He had been thinking about it all night from last night until now, but still couldn't figure out what he had done to cause Bai Jinxuan to have such a misunderstanding.

When they first met, his attitude towards her was not good at all, and could even be said to be a little bad.

It was not until after a few days of contact that he felt that she was easy to get along with and sensible, so he accepted her as a companion.

What really touched him and made him accept her was when she went to find him despite the danger in the underground base, saying that she would rather die together.

In such an environment, and after experiencing life and death together, it is normal for some feelings to develop between men and women.

But she expressed her true feelings last night, and it sounded like she was deeply in love.

This is a bit difficult to understand.

To be honest, he felt that the two women he had chosen before, Luo Xiyun and Yang Jinxia, ​​were somewhat abnormal. Now, with the equally abnormal Bai Jinxuan, he was a little unsure.

Could it be that he was the one who was abnormal? He felt that he needed to have a good talk with her, and said, "There must be other men who are truly good to you, right?"

"Yes, I have."

Bai Jinxuan thought for a moment and said, "When I was in school, I would run into a boy almost every morning on my way to school. At first I thought it was a coincidence. Later, the weather got colder, and I delayed leaving home by five minutes, and I didn't run into him again. Until a few days later, he appeared on my way to school again. This happened several times afterwards, and I knew it was not a coincidence."

"At that time, there was a boy in my class who always teased me, pulled my hair, and blocked my way after class. A few days later, his bicycle tires were deflated every day, which made him very angry."

"I know it was that boy who did it, because I didn't run into him on the way to school during those days, and he was late for school for several days in a row."

"Also, when I was working, there was a period of time when people often bought breakfast and put it on my desk. On rainy days, they would put an umbrella on my desk. I also often received anonymous express deliveries, which were gifts such as dolls."

"In fact, I know that it was a male colleague who bought it. The way he looked at me was different from others. For a while, when I was working the night shift, he secretly followed me and didn't leave until I returned to my rental house. In fact, I had already discovered him a long time ago, but I just didn't expose him."

"If you really think about it, they both should be sincere to me. But, this kind of kindness is not what I want."

After hearing all she said, Chen Xu was still confused and asked directly, "Then what do you want?"

Bai Jinxuan turned her head and glanced at him. Her eyes could not be seen through her glasses, but the smile on the corner of her mouth was particularly gentle.

"My dad passed away when I was very young. This is what my mom told me. I have been with my mom since I was a child. She was busy working to make money and didn't have much time to take care of me. When I was in kindergarten, she would send me to her friends' or neighbors' homes on weekends."

"It was at that time that I discovered that adults all liked well-behaved and obedient children, so I became well-behaved and obedient. Sure enough, those adults, whether they were acquaintances or strangers, liked me very much and sometimes bought me candy."

"Later, as I grew up, I understood more. I discovered something interesting. Everyone has different motives behind being nice to you."

"Some elders, like my mom's friends and neighbors, are kind to me out of kindness. It's like when you meet a cute little animal, you tease it and get a response, which makes you feel better."

“Some of my peers were nice to me because they wanted to be friends with me because I was pretty and popular in class.”

"After I started working, I met more people, and they were more complicated. Sister Liu, who worked with me, was nice to me because I had helped her. She treated me like her sister."

"Auntie Shao is nice to me because she thinks I have potential and hopes I can become a star."

"The boss of the agency is nice to me because I can make money for him."

"My agent Fang Fang treats me well because I am related to her career."

“Everyone on my team treats me well because of the salary they get.”

"After I became famous, I met all kinds of people, both men and women, some of whom were after my fame, and some of whom were after me as a person."

Chen Xu was somewhat surprised when he heard her say this. She looked a little silly on the surface and would act silly from time to time, but unexpectedly, she was very clear about people's hearts.

Bai Jinxuan said this and looked at him again, "Only you are different from everyone else."

"After coming to this world, I have nothing but my face and body. But you don't want my body, nor do you want me to love you. You don't want anything, but you treat me so well."

"No one has ever been so strict with me like you, telling me I can't do this or that. And asking me to do this or that."

"When there was danger, you didn't want me to take risks. When you were injured and saw me, the first thing you thought of was to let me leave quickly."

"At that time, I thought that no one else in this world could treat me like this. If we really have to die, let's die together. If we can survive, I must be with you."

"Chen Xu, I'm telling you this to tell you that I'm not doing this out of gratitude, nor am I acting on impulse."

"I like the way you control me. I like the way you worry about me getting hurt and teach me with a stern face. I like the way you keep your distance from me for fear of getting me in trouble. I like the way you push me away for your ex-girlfriend."

"I want to be with you."

She murmured, "Ever since I was a child, I have understood that in this world, if you want something, you need to work hard for it. So, even if you think I am shameless, I will not give up. Even if you drive me away, I will not leave..."
